The Faculty of Education offers a number of Institutes in Education. These are intended primarily
to provide opportunity for teachers to gain knowledge of new approaches to the teaching of
existing school programs and to gain insight into aspects of new programs as they are introduced
in the school system. These Institutes normally carry six or nine credit hours. Students who enrol
in Institutes of six weeks duration or less will not normally be permitted to register for any other
courses. Additional information on Institutes may be obtained from the Faculty of Education. Not
all Institutes are offered every semester or summer.

NOTE: Students wishing to enrol in Institutes should contact the Office of Undergraduate
Student Services.

In accordance with Senate's Policy Regarding Inactive Courses, courses which have not been
offered in the previous three academic years and which are not scheduled to be offered in the
current academic year have been removed from the following listing. For information about any
of these inactive courses, please contact the Dean of the Faculty.

Mathematics. The Van Hiel levels and their implications for instruction in geometry will be discussed.
Activities appropriate to the teaching of junior high Mathematics will be developed and

appropriate to the new program and how they can be integrated into the junior high Mathematics curriculum.
